The name Saph1re came about many years ago when I was setting up an eBay account, but every username I tried was taken. I happened to look down at my sapphire engagement ring and decided to spell it wrong, and guess what, it was available :-)

When She Was Bad is another great psychological thriller by Tammy Cohen.

This author is so good at creating well developed and believable characters. It’s probably the thing I love most about her books, and throughout this story, I struggled to know who to trust.

There are quite a few characters introduced early on in the book, so if you have a rubbish memory like me, you might want to make a note of the characters to help you keep track of who is who early on in the story.

Fiction book solves real life mystery...I did giggle when the song Kumbaya was mentioned. I have honestly never discussed this song with my husband in the twenty years we’ve been together, yet only two days before reading this book, I was talking about primary school songs, and told him there was a religious song where we did some hand twirling to it while we sang, but neither of us could work out the song I was trying to remember, until I read this book, and I was so happy it helped me solve the mystery. I’ve also since discovered, thanks to videos of the song online, that the hand twirling I remember was probably sign language.

I would like to thank the publisher, Black Swan (Transworld Publishers) for allowing me a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
